Use of Intravitreal Autologous Blood to Identify Posterior Cortical Vitreous in Macular Hole Surgery

Edward A. Ryan, MD; Scott Lee, MD; Sandra Chern, MD

Arch Ophthalmol. 1995;113(6):822-823.


Abstract

Surgical management of macular holes involves removal of tractional prefovial vitreous cortex. Accurately identifying this adherent tissue can potentially decrease intraoperative complications. A new, effective technique using autologous whole blood can be used to identify and facilitate separation of the posterior cortical vitreous.
